We live locally and decided to do a staycation as we had family over from the UK. We all had a great time the hotel staff are all friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. Great bars, restaurants all within walking distance. The resort pool was a real winner with our 2 children (4,2). The apartment was well equipped and the 3 bed apartments are a great size and layout was great.

We booked 12 nights accommodation with drift apartments through Agoda for nearly $2800. The free cancellation period ended on 12th of July after that any cancellation was non-refundable. We were informed on 15 July that my mother was diagnosed with a cancerous bowel obstruction and needed urgent surgery. We notified Drift and asked for a refund despite the fact that the policy had become non-refundable due to the exceptional circumstances. Despite this they declined our request request. We didn’t choose to cancel our holiday because we found another offer, it was an em emergency and necessary for us to provide support to my mother at a very difficult time in her life. It is such a shame that drift apartments seem to totally lack compassion.

We really enjoyed our stay in Palm Cove. Our apartment was spacious and comfortable. Belle holidays apartments were very responsive and commutative. The pool was lovely & the surrounding pub and restaurants were lovely. A short stroll to the beach made this a great family holiday.

Initially we were booked into a One-bedroom Loft unit which on arrival was very dreary and not maintained. We were very disappointed and relayed this to the Receptionist as this was a celebration long weekend for my 70th birthday with guests from Brisbane attending also. The Receptionist was outstanding and allotted us a newly renovated unit with 2 bedrooms. This was very much appreciated and can recommend her with her outstanding customer service.
